I was bored the other day so I did some macro shots of some orchids Lisa has in out house. There was a noticeable spot in all of the shots (time to clean the sensor) but it was easy enough to clone out. But while looking at the image at full magnification doing the clean-up, I started noticing lines, shapes and forms within the overall picture. Here are a couple of *extreme* crops. I added a light Gaussian blur overlay, partly for atmospheric effect and partly to hide the massive cropping :)
